Chapter 366: Daring to be the First in the World

~10 min read 1,808 words

Chen Jiajun said indifferently to these people, "I'll give you one more chance. Get lost."

The little yellow-haired man's expression was very ugly, and he yelled viciously at Chen Jiajun, "Do you think I'm afraid of you just because you have a gun? We have so many brothers here."

As he spoke, this guy gave a wink to a hoodlum standing to Chen Jiajun's side, intending to rush up and snatch the gun directly.

Chen Jiajun sneered, "Is that so?"

As he spoke, he fired a shot backhanded, hitting the thigh of the hoodlum who had rushed over.

Instantly, the guy who had intended to take the risk began to roll on the ground, clutching his thigh.

"There are still seventeen bullets in my gun. Who else among you wants to try?" Chen Jiajun held the gun in one hand with a cigarette dangling from his mouth, and the sight immediately made stars appear in He Tian'er's eyes inside the car.

Chen Jiajun's actions truly frightened this group of punks.

Having a gun in hand wasn't scary; what was scary was that this person dared to fire it and appeared so unscrupulous.

Added to that was the nearly totaled Porsche nearby, and the girl inside who was beautiful enough to bubble over.

These punks finally realized that their momentary impulse seemed to have brought them no small amount of trouble.

Just as the few of them were stunned, several black commercial vehicles drove over.

Then, a group of fierce-looking Demon Slave youths walked out and said to Chen Jiajun, "Boss, there was a traffic jam on the road. We're late."

Seeing these strong men, each nearly two meters tall with bulging muscles, this group of punks became even more terrified.

Some even abandoned the yellow-haired spiky-head and snuck away, fearing that if they ran too slowly, they would be beaten to a pulp.

The yellow-haired spiky-head was even more panicked; he couldn't even sneak away now because Chen Jiajun's gun was pointed right at him.

Watching the trembling state of such trash, Chen Jiajun put the gun away and then helped He Tian'er out of the car.

"My car." He Tian'er looked at her Porsche, which had already turned into a pile of scrap metal, with a look of grief and indignation, suddenly feeling like she wanted to cry but had no tears.

Afterwards, she shouted at the few Demon Slave youths beside Chen Jiajun, "Tie Chui, break one of this guy's legs for me."

Only now did He Tian'er have a bit of the air of a spoiled young lady, pointing at the yellow-haired spiky-head and speaking viciously.

These Demon Slave youths were usually responsible for protecting Chen Jiajun's women, so they were still very familiar with this young lady, He Tian'er.

Plus, He Tian'er had a good personality and usually treated these Demon Slave youths quite well.

So Tie Chui and the others didn't even think about it; they rushed over and picked up the yellow-haired spiky-head as if he were a chick.

Then, with a single punch, they smashed and broke the yellow-haired man's leg.

The yellow-haired man shrieked miserably, rolling all over the ground in pain.

"That's enough. Who told you to go and provoke such hoodlums?" Chen Jiajun interrupted the fuming He Tian'er with annoyance and said, "Alright, you've had your fun, let's go home."

Once Chen Jiajun spoke, He Tian'er could only snort coldly and let it go. However, before leaving, she still warned the yellow-haired man to pay for an identical Porsche, or else she would make him regret it.

After returning home, this crazy girl actually went to complain to Guan Jiahui, saying that Chen Jiajun had scared her.

This caused Chen Jiajun to receive a long series of eye-rolls from Guan Jiahui, which angered Chen Jiajun so much that he "taught" this crazy girl a harsh lesson again that very night.

It was only recently that Chen Jiajun could be considered truly free.

In Hong Kong, Wei Li could handle things very well; apart from some necessary documents that required Chen Jiajun's signature, there were no other matters.

Brunei was currently in a bottleneck period and required Ao En to make a breakthrough before anything else could be discussed.

As for the Mainland, although Xu Jiawei was not a qualified management talent, Shenzhou was just starting out and had not yet gotten on the right track, so there was no major problem with him concurrently serving as the president of Shenzhou Technology for the time being.

However, under Chen Jiajun's deliberate cultivation, several young people in the company had already begun to stand out, and several direct subordinates studying for their MBAs would be able to return to Hong Kong before long; by then, Chen Jiajun would be able to free himself from the trivial matters of the company and seriously do the job of a helmsman.

"A Jun, Mr. Huo is on the phone."

Just as Chen Jiajun was sitting in the garden lazily basking in the sun, Guan Jiahui's voice came from inside the house.

Chen Jiajun could only get up to go inside and answer the phone.

Huo Yingnan had called to ask Chen Jiajun to attend a charity banquet.

This event was spearheaded by Huo Yingnan, so Chen Jiajun had to give him this face.

Therefore, in the evening, Chen Jiajun arrived at the hotel early and met Huo Yingnan.

"Nan Ge, what's the matter that you called me over so early?" Chen Jiajun asked with some curiosity.

Huo Yingnan smiled and said, "I heard you have some ideas about Hong Kong Telecom?"

Chen Jiajun nodded, "I do have some ideas, but, Cable and Wireless is not very easy to talk to."

This matter had once forced Chen Jiajun to almost give up, and he hadn't asked about it for a long time.

When Huo Yingnan brought it up today, Chen Jiajun finally remembered.

Huo Yingnan smiled and said to Chen Jiajun, "Can you tell me why you have such thoughts?"

Chen Jiajun didn't hide it and said directly, "You also know that I recently started a Shenzhou Technology Company, right?"

Huo Yingnan nodded, "I know, the Walkman and MP3 are selling quite well; I hear they are quite popular with young people."

"I intend to lay out a plan for the gaps in the electronics industry," Chen Jiajun said with a smile. "I bought patents from many companies in the United States and Japan, intending to build up this gap."

Huo Yingnan said in surprise, "You kid have quite a lot of courage."

It is well known that it is not easy to do real industry.

Especially in a place like Hong Kong, otherwise, Hong Kong's finance and real estate wouldn't be so crazy.

Chen Jiajun daring to say he would fill this gap indeed had a flavor of "daring to be the first in the world."

"But what does this have to do with you wanting to acquire Hong Kong Telecom?" Huo Yingnan asked with some confusion.

Chen Jiajun spread his hands and said, "Recently, the Laboratory over in Brunei has produced quite a few technologies related to communications. I see that mobile phones will definitely become mainstream, so I want to lay out a plan in advance."

"I don't want to have the technology developed only to have my neck choked by the Gweilo from England in terms of telecommunications. But I was a bit too naive; behind Cable and Wireless stands HSBC, and my relationship with HSBC..."

Speaking of this, Chen Jiajun shook his head.

Huo Yingnan immediately laughed, "This is a coincidence. I heard a piece of news recently."

Chen Jiajun's heart stirred, and he said to Huo Yingnan, "Nan Ge, are you still keeping me in suspense?"

"Haha, look at how anxious you are, kid," Huo Yingnan said with a smile. "I heard that Cable and Wireless is planning to split up."

Hearing Huo Yingnan's words, Chen Jiajun was stunned for a moment: "Split up?"

"That's right." Huo Yingnan said with a smile: "After I heard you were asking about Cable and Wireless, I helped you look into it; Cable and Wireless is preparing to split into four companies."

Chen Jiajun was delighted on the spot: "There's such a good thing?"

"That's why I helped you arrange a meeting with the people from Cable and Wireless today." Huo Yingnan said with a smile.

Chen Jiajun nodded and said: "Nan Ge, I won't say any polite words; I happen to have two bottles of good wine, I'll have someone send them over to you later."

Huo Yingnan waved his hand and said: "I am only acting on someone else's behalf."

Hearing Huo Yingnan's words, Chen Jiajun was stunned for a moment: "Acting on someone else's behalf?"

Huo Yingnan lowered his voice and said: "Hong Kong Telecom has a monopoly on the telecommunications industry in Hong Kong, and the folks back home don't want this company to fall into the hands of foreigners."

Chen Jiajun's eyes lit up immediately; if he had the help of the folks back home, it couldn't be better.

"However, you aren't the only one competing for this." Huo Yingnan changed the subject and said to Chen Jiajun.

"Oh? Who else is involved?" Chen Jiajun frowned and said.

"Who else could it be? A fence-sitter, that's who." Huo Yingnan said with a look of disdain.

The fence-sitter Huo Yingnan was referring to was none other than that Boss Li from Cheung Kong.

After all, the bad blood between the two is significant, and Huo Yingnan and other leftist businessmen are very disdainful of this Boss Li.

Chen Jiajun said with some curiosity: "Why would that old guy think to get involved in the telecommunications industry?"

Huo Yingnan shook his head and said: "I don't know, it probably isn't him. It's his second son."

"The meaning from the folks back home is that it doesn't matter which of you two gets it, they just don't want Hong Kong Telecom to fall into the hands of foreigners; as for other matters, they don't want to interfere too much."

Chen Jiajun sighed and said: "I understand, this means there is a tough battle to be fought."

Huo Yingnan could only spread his hands and say: "I can't get too involved in this matter, it's all up to you. But I heard you've made quite a lot abroad recently, so it shouldn't be a problem, right?"

Chen Jiajun gave a bitter smile: "I earn a lot, but my expenses are also high, Nan Ge."

"Stop crying poor to me, you brat." Huo Yingnan said irritably: "Don't think I don't know your style of doing things; you wouldn't be thinking about acquiring Hong Kong Telecom if you weren't confident."

"Hehe." Chen Jiajun just smiled and didn't say anything more. (End of chapter)
